Aretha Franklin, BB King, and Jack Jones Performing in

[snoops71]

Wow, I didn't know Jack Jones could get down like that! Terrific video!

[themrduragss]

that white guy can sing

[StartingwithSoul]

it was like bb and aretha were making love and jack jones was trying to watch and then try to join in..

[trho1]

classic! aretha can sing anything! this is when her voice was in tip top shape! but with her it does not matter she works it any way and does not ever leave you feeling like you are missing something

[L9C1C5]

It was Jacks show and they were guests. This was pretty impromptu - just a jam at the end of the show. Jack's a great singer but obviously this was not his thing. He can sure sing though. Aretha and BB were amazing. Love Aretha's wig!

[lcasse]

He's way out of his league..

[shinigami285]

I've watched this jam and a jam BB had w/ Gladys Knight.  Why is it either one of these women can remember the words to BB's songs?

[oelon]

At the end she kisses BB King and taps Jack on the shoulder.....

[oelon]

i guess the record label needed to built some credibility for mr Jones ...

[54spiritedwill54]

The ending is so funny! I love it The King of Blues and the Queen of Soul wonderful match!

[MrStyle23]

Aretha and BB The Queen and King. Really didn't need Jack Jones.

Aretha that voice is a gift from God so I just want to say Thank you GOD!

[flappospammo]

love jack jones , but BB king was on fire

wow

amazing song

[dinyjo]

Jack Jones is a wonderful singer, too bad u don't have good taste.

[etcapela]

pure gold from them all...this is as good as it gets

[stevevandien]

I love Jack Jones, but he isn't keeping up with B and Aretha here, whom I love as well --- they are fantastic, and Jack is quite some distance behind them, God bless them all --

[mrbriscoe2001]

Jack Jones looked really comfortable,didn't he?loved that last yelp from him.

[DJDJANGO1]

Ultimately, the evidnce is all there. Aretha and BB King showin how natural it comes. Its in there DNA and history. The Blues, The Jazz and The Soul.

And then there's the cheesy cabaret Sinatra-wannabe Jack Jones strugglin way outta his depth. Squarkin like a talentless pre pubescent choir boy with a spoon stuck in his throat.

Like the elephant in the room ....everybody sees it but very few say anything. This clip is like the true history of popular music and its origin.

[dantej32]

BB can't sing and play at the same time. They cut off Aretha's cleavage on the close ups. her tits were growing atthat time.

[anwealde]

They're better in pairs or solo

[PAINKILLER2909]

B.B's nGuitar & Aretha's Great Voice! Perfect Mix! Wonder why the world didn't end that day...

[SoulSir]

This show needs to be taken to the laundrymat cause u suppose to seperate the darks and lights....can anyone say segregation and or seperation ? That white boy is out of his element.

[Glouxm]

Of course- but he is a very versatile performer otherwise. It was all a joke about how a white guy couldn't reach the notes they could. This wasn't meant to be a battle!

Once again, it appears that race comes into play. I'm white- you're black? Who fuckin cares?! Each of the singers up there are the top singers in their field.

[SoulSir]

Don't mind my goddamn commentary and like I type before, sense you don't seem to get it I'll paste it once more for your lack of understanding. This show needs to be taken to the laundrymat cause u suppose to seperate the darks and lights....can anyone say segregation and or seperation ? That white boy is out of his element. F.Y.I. this does not I repeat typing does require a response for u and or anybody.

[Glouxm]

You need a brain change Soulcunt. You're a racist motherfucker. Fuck you and every cunt like you- I hope you get raped in prison in front of your fuckin mother.

[SoulSir]

"Lmao!! Get use to my comments its plenty more to come and if my commentary bothers you that much...why don't you kill yourself, you fairie!!! lol

[Glouxm]

No worries James Brown. Say hi to Malcolm X for me!

[SoulSir]

"Lmao!!!

[tnrc75]

It's just a pity you ain't got enough sense even to type correctly, quite apart from your racist views. Go away sir. It's people like you who make things wrong in the world. The colors and the white should be washed and they needn't be separated.

[ZebFAN08]

SoulSir, you're a racist!

[moonchildiva]

um, when were they planning on giving jack a chance to sing............?  i've seen jack sing the blues in concert and he's got soul.

[mytheropy]

You have the best video's.

[monrayday]

u mean he steals the best videos

[mytheropy]

look at you..

Oh boy

[monrayday]

look at me what

[Lgh45]

queen and the baddest blues singer alive

[bradly2007]

Jack is right in there with them...three legends having fun and in great form! Anyone familiar with Jack knows he can sing anything and has incredible range and vocal power...certainly no second to Lady Soul & they each have there own! Bravo Aretha, Jack and B.B.King for this musical treat!

[ZebFAN06]

Jack Jones was very rude starting at 2:57 (from that point on he hit some hideous notes trying to copy Aretha) This was one very soul-filled tune and Jack Jones was jsut trying to turn it into a comedy.

[joeljjison]

at 2.20 when the piano starts chomping and that bassline starts getting more pushy... its really groovy

[bluebluedanube]

Jack Jones was a big 60s/70s pop singer, but is clearly out of his element. Notice, however, how the Queen of R-E-S-P-E-C-T doesn't so much as look at JJones throughout the entire performance. Not once. Disdain or indifference?

[adremoid]

Imho when you are in front ogìf B.B. King you just do not consider other guys on the scene.

[summersunt]

you can say that again! Aretha catches the beat straight away and Jack Jones looks lost and is just standing there. Oh well you either have it or you don't

[bradly2007]

Aretha is focused on what she is doing and Jack is not out of his element...this guy is still great in concert and those of us who have been lucky to experienced Jack Jones in concert know that he is truly one of the legendary greats!!! Bravo to all three of these incomparable musical wonders!!!!!!!

[scatmando]

Thank god, someone with some sense.

In a 41 year old Scotsman and Jack Jones is a wonderful vocalist as are the other two.

[johnmore]

fabulous

[iposacanuca]

this jack guy has quite the set of balls to even attempt to sing a vocal run around these two. A for effort can't say the same about his delivery though

[summersunt]

LOLOL!@ quite a set of balls. Yep, he must have quite a pair

[ramiakin]

The Queen!!!!

[senshymelody]

Thank you so much for including this is your video uploads. I really enjoyed it.

[OliverPenn1]

I've always loved Jack Jones as a brilliant pop singer. He was brave to do this with B. B. King and the Queen of Soul. Aretha Franklin and Jones also sang on the Academy Awards together in the mid-70s.

[bemaniac2]

she aint got enuff growl in her voice her, c'mon queen

[jigganikkanj]

what do you mean "growl"?....her vocals are so effortless here..i dont think growling was called for here....

[JohnLeslieFedUp]

gotta love jack! one tough soulful mutha! everyone should check out his 1979 and 1980 albums if they can find em..great stuff.

[Nikray]

"The unknown man is singer Jack Jones." Yes Jack Jones has a great voice he also had a hit version of a dionne warwick classic "wives and lovers" in the 60's!!

[JohnLeslieFedUp]

more so..the kick ass and ignored dance version of "wives and lovers" in 1979

[bradly2007]

Nikray "Wives & Lovers" is Jack Jones classic and was a big hit for him & Dionne only did a cover version...Jack Jones is one of the greatest ever!

[Nikray]

Actually Dionne and Burt stated that Dionne did the demo for the song like most of Burt and Hal's early songs. But yes you are right Jack did have the bigger hit record!

[cadillacj123]

The unknown man is singer Jack Jones. He's probably best known for singing the theme to TV's "The Love Boat".

[tiana1017]

i think the other singer is famous country legend George Jones

[jonahmoses]

The white guy is so cool...he makes me smile on certain parts of the song...Aretha, sing's her butt off! - She just ssso soulful. She hits those high notes in the natural range of her voice ! ! ! awesome !B.B. King is cool as well -

[scotandi]

white boy has a good voice!

[MrStyle]

The ending is so funny! I love it The King of Blues and the Queen of Soul wonderful match!
